Property Value

Nullable (boxed) ImGearTIFFCompression enumeration value.
Remarks
This property accesses the Compression tag. The tag specifies the compression scheme used on the image data.

Get accessor returns the tag value if the tag is present in the metadata tree, or null otherwise.

Set accessor replaces the current tag value if the tag is present in the metadata tree, adds the tag if it was not present, or deletes the tag if a null value is passed.

ImageGear ignores the value of this tag during image saving, and saves a value that corresponds to the saved image DIB's parameters.

See the TIFF 6.0 specification for tag usage details.
